Well, add this to the list of evidence that Assassin’s Creed Origins is definitely a thing, even if Ubisoft won’t admit so just yet. NeoGAF user WraithWalker 1893 posted a picture of what appears to be a bit of Assassin’s Creed Origins merch – specifically, a t-shirt with the hero emblazoned on the front. I don’t know about you, but I’m liking what I see. Google Translate says that’s Kurdish for “one,” which would make a certain amount of sense but I’ll leave that as something of a mystery. All

Square Enix plans to sell Hitman developer IO Interactive, but it’s trying to make sure the franchise and studio have a future together after the ink is dry. The publisher shared the encouraging news at the tail end of a financial results briefing which you can read online. That would have been a particular bummer since IO is already likely deep into development on Hitman Season 2, the follow-up to its episodic experiment. The future of Hitman and IO still hinges on whether Square Enix can find

Star Wars: The Last Jedi star Oscar Isaac has been talking about the time he spent on the movie with the late, great Carrie Fisher. Apparently the star spent a lot of it being slapped by the actress. His first day of shooting involved a scene between Isaac’s character Poe Dameron and Carrie Fisher when Princess Leia was, he says, “very upset with me.” “It ended up being 27 takes of Carrie just leaning in,” explaining Isaac, adding “and every time she’d hit a different spot on my face.” However,

Game of Thrones fans, I hate to remind you of this, but Jon Snow has one teeny, tiny flaw: his penis. And according to showrunners David Benioff and Daniel Weiss, that’s because actor Kit Harington is just too damn perfect. “There has to be some downside to being Kit Harington, right? The one thing we can do is saddle his character with a tiny pecker.” And according to some intriguing fan theories for Game of Thrones season 7, Snow will be making some big moves in 2017.

If you can’t watch watch the PlayStation E3 show in person but would still like to see it in a large room with a bunch of rowdy video game fans, the PlayStation E3 Experience has you covered. Head to the PlayStation Blog to see a full list of all the theaters across the US and Canada participating in the PlayStation E3 Experience – more than 85 are listed so there’s a decent chance you’ll find one nearby. Here’s what they look like:Yep, show up to watch the presentation on a big screen and you’l

Maaaaan, those were good.”When Ren finally does wind down, he calls to the other person on the boat: “Alex. Some players might hate the dialogue time limit, but it’s necessary in order to encourage interruption, which makes the conversations feel natural. Real life interruption definitely has negative aspects (for instance, men are more likely to interrupt than women, and are more likely to do so in a conversation with a woman), but it’s a natural part of human interaction. The interruption mech

We know Nintendo plans to open Super Nintendo World attractions at Universal Studio theme parks. The filing (via this tweet) is under the name Super Nintendo World, which currently is the name for the Japan attraction (and the first planned to open in 2020). pic.twitter.com/NcmxK0GAZ6December 12, 2016Confusingly, the trademark is filed with the US, listing the “State or Country Where Organised” as Japan.

The logistics of Avengers: Infinity War must be off the scale. The biggest movie, well, ever, has a lot to sort out, but it seems that Karen Gillan hasn’t even got her script yet. It’s obviously to ensure the script doesn’t go out before it absolutely has to. The pages were red so you couldn’t photocopy them.”Tom Holland took matters into his own hands by burning his Avengers: Infinity War script – but that was only after he forgot to return his script to Marvel.

It’s three months until Madden 18 hits the shelves, with Tom Brady on the cover – and GR+ expects full details of this year’s game to emerge next month, at E3. Rated 90 overall in Madden 17, signal caller Philip Rivers can still go, and his options with the ball have been bolstered by the draft-day addition of #7 overall pick Mike Williams. Chicago BearsGoing by Morgan Trubisky’s Madden 17 Ultimate Team card, the Bears are finally going to be a fun side to play offence with next year. The latter

Sony’s Japanese product page for PlayStation 3 now lists shipments as having ‘ended’, or being ‘complete’, depending on translations. Back in March we knew PS3 production was ending soon but there was no clear date. We’ve got an amazing old 2006 interview with then Sony Worldwide Studios boss Phil Harrison on PS3. And if you want a little bit of nostalgia then we’ve got a look back at what it was like to own a PS3. If you’ve got any good memories of owning a PS3 then drop them in the comments, a

The runtime of Spider-Man: Homecoming has just been revealed, but how does it compare to the rest of the MCU’s movies? Let’s clock up how Spidey’s latest offering fares when compared to the bum-numbing lengths of Marvel superhero marathons such as Avengers: Age of Ultron and Captain America: Civil War. Event Cinemas (H/T Screen Rant) has Spider-Man: Homecoming’s runtime listed as 130 minutes (2 hours 10 mins) which, interestingly enough, is the shortest Spidey flick since 2004’s Spider-Man 2, ak

It stings when it happens in-game, but at least we denizens of the Internet can commiserate with you. Mei the traitorIn the midst of a Reaper ultimate, an enemy Mei tried to play defense with her Ice Wall. Winston the traitorZarya thought she was doing the right thing, shielding her teammate Winston with a Projected Barrier. But when he’s stuck with Tracer’s Pulse Bomb, he leaps right into Zarya’s face. End result is a dead Zarya as Winston scampers away.

A French 66-minute stop-motion animation about children in an orphanage, My Life as a Courgette is an unexpected delight. “I’m here because I think I killed my Mum,” Courgette later tells Simon (Romy Beckman), his friend at the rural orphanage where he ends up. Adapting from Gilles Paris’ 2002 novel Autobiographie d’une Courgette, Barras and his team made the wise decision to bring Céline Sciamma on board as screenwriter. Courgette’s friendship with football-loving new girl Camille (Ness Krell),

Seeing Shadow shrug off the supernatural to focus on Laura’s human flaws is the best thing American Gods could be doing right now. I think she’s hungry for the mysterious power he has. Especially since Crispin Glover’s Mr World, the leader of the new gods, trembles with each line he speaks. Ending the episode with a massacre of the entire police station, the contempt the new gods have for humanity is troubling. Media, Mr World, and Technical Boy are all-powerful thanks to humans, yet they see no

A French 66-minute stop-motion animation about children in an orphanage, My Life as a Courgette is an unexpected delight. Animated or not, there are few sadder sights than watching a child clear up after their alcoholic parent. When Courgette drops some of the discarded tins, his furious ma storms up to his attic room. Adapting from Gilles Paris’ 2002 novel Autobiographie d’une Courgette, Barras and his team made the wise decision to bring Céline Sciamma on board as screenwriter. Quite whether c

And so it is done. Twelve days, untold movies, and so many croissants that we half-expected Morgan Spurlock to make a documentary. It wasn’t a vintage Cannes line up, with no outright masterpiece in show and only 20 or so movies of real quality. But that’s fine when it comes to selecting our dozen favourites: each of the films listed below is a cracker; they will shock or delight you, probably both, and once more prove that the Cannes Film Festival is an essential event in the film calendar.

It again proves her immense worth as a maker of singular dramas that perform keyhole surgery on tortured psyches. Joaquin Phoenix plays Joe, a hitman for hire who is commissioned to rescue the teenage daughter of an ambitious politician from a sex-trafficking ring. Joe is ruthlessly efficient at his job, favouring a hammer to a gun as his weapon of bad guy-dispatching choice. Like Bickle, Joe is a military veteran, with the briefest of flashbacks illuminating his traumatic past in the Gulf War.

The floor of this second room, roughly the size of a tennis court, is covered with sand. But not sand of the happy-childhood-memories-in-Skegness variety; instead the coarse, cold grains feel uncomfortable underfoot, one of the crucial ways Carne y Arena heightens the sensory experience. Shot by multi-Oscar winning cinematographer Emmauel Lubezki, it’s an evocative location and, in its own way, quite beautiful. The installation is defiantly not a game (it’s entirely non-interactive in the tradit
